WF Wizard. Anything wrong with it?

I love all the non team players that do not believe extend is useful. Just go solo something or drop one of these silly dcs by 1 so you can actually buff people.

Extend is only useful for haste, displacement and rage. One is very useful, but it lasting 4 minutes instead of 2 is only convenient, the second is only useful for tough fights, and they rarely last more than 2 minutes, except for raid bosses (and there will likely be a bard or pm with extend in those raids), the third, well, I've yet to get an explanation of why it's considered such a good buff.

Asking for buffs is fine, I have enough sp to blur and gh and haste everyone.
Asking casters to take a feat that's of no personal use and only used in a melee-heavy party that won't have a bard or pm (who do take extend because it's more useful to them) is rather selfish and narrow-minded imo.

But by all means, let's not lose sight of the fact that melees are more important and deserve to have every other class built around them for their convenience (many melee-only players seem to think so anyway).

i love the selfish melees who don't realize that the vast majority of buffs in the game last 1 minute per caster level... which is definitely long enough to last till the next shrine in 90% of all quests. protip: Extend does not actually make the buff better.

it was only marginally useful before the nerf, and now that it doesn't affect offensive spells, it is truly useless. get over it, or petition the devs to change it back.

I'm not your personal buffbot. I'll give you an unextended Haste and Rage, and I'll refresh that when it's convenient for me to do so (and also when you ask for it, provided you aren't constantly begging for it.). I'll refresh it when it needs to be refreshed, and I'll refresh it when the group is forced to gather for some reason. In between, you can get your own Hastes and Rage off potions, clickies and items. Stop being such a dependent melee and learn to appreciate your Blur, Greater Heroism and Mass Protection more. =)

Been onholiday overseas for a month, so apologies for the small necro. As it turns out the below post is what I have actually rolled, although what (little) dmg spec I currently have is in fire, that will change once I get level 6 spells.

Currently level 10, playing this guy in an all warforged static group (not allowed to send gear or monies from other characters/bank, although we did all buy Superior Ability Tomes at level 7) that plays every Sunday evening.

I am really enjoying playing this guy to-date. CC has been a blast and the melee's in our grp certainly appreciate the effectiveness.

Thanks very much to everyone for all the helpful advice.
